Olympus C-5050

I have recently purchased an Olympus C-5050 zoom camera and, though it is capable of using multiple media card types (MMC, xd, CF and microdrive) I am unsure as to whether or not it can use xD cards bigger than 128MB. Is there anyone who has one of these cameras who has used cards bigger than 128MB?

Advice warmly welcomed.

512 megs is the largest XD card it will accept I believe. I have a 1 gig XD card and it doesn't work in it.

Better to use a 2 gig compactflash card in it which it will accept.

XD cards are not too impressive speed wise.

When I had one of these cameras it worked fine with a 1G XD card.

Yes, I use a 1 gig with it all the time

Are your XD cards the "high Speed" variety. Not the "M" version?
